Cookie Policy
19/09/2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Fanex (“we”, “us”, or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies (e.g., pixels) on our website (the “Website”). It outlines what cookies we use, their purposes, and how long they remain active. For more information on how we process personal data, please refer to our Privacy Policy.
1. Categories of Cookies Used
We classify cookies into four categories:
- Essential Cookies – Necessary for core functionality and security
- Analytics & Testing Cookies – Used to analyze usage and optimize performance
- Marketing Cookies – Used for advertising and promotional activities
- Functional Cookies – Remember a choice or a context you arrived with, such as the invitation link that brought you to Fanex
Analytics, marketing and functional cookies are only used if you grant explicit consent, which you can manage or revoke at any time through our website's cookie settings.
2. Essential Cookies (Always Active)
These cookies ensure proper functioning, navigation, and security of the Website. They are mandatory for service provision and cannot be disabled.

|---|---|---|
fanex_lang | Stores language preference | 1 year |
consent_analytics | Records analytics consent | 1 year |

fanex_consent_functional | Records your functional-cookie choice so our servers can apply it. Without it your refusal could not be honoured on cookies set by the server. | 12 months |
3. Analytics & Testing Cookies
These cookies help us improve the Website by analyzing user behavior and testing new features. They are only activated with your consent.
Our website analytics (Vercel Web Analytics) and the real-time count of pages open on the Website set no cookies and store nothing on your device, so they do not appear in the table below. Section 7 of our Privacy Policy describes both. Fanex does not use Google Analytics.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
dicbo_id | Session analytics cookie for traffic insights | Session |
fanex_test_id | Assigns users to A/B test variants | 90 days |
fanex_features | Enables or disables experimental features | 1 hour |
fanex_variant_* | Stores variant of experiment assigned to user | 1 hour |
fanex_impression | Tracks exposure to experimental content | 1 hour |
4. Marketing Cookies
Used to promote our services, personalize advertising, and track campaign effectiveness. These are only set with your consent.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
_gcl_au | Google Ads: Measures ad conversion and campaign success | 90 days |
_fbp | Meta/Facebook: Tracks users and displays retargeting ads | 90 days |
5. Functional Cookies
These remember a choice or a context you arrived with. They are set only if you allow functional cookies, and removed if you later refuse them.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
fanex_ref | Remembers the invitation code of the person whose link brought you here, so they can be credited if you later create an account. It holds that code and nothing else, is readable only by our servers, and is never used for advertising or profiling. | 30 days |
6. Cookie Management
You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking “Cookie Settings” at the bottom of the Website. Note that rejecting cookies does not affect your use of the Fanex app or account dashboard, as those systems are separate.
If your browser is set to block all cookies, we will not be able to remember your preferences. Please refer to your browser's documentation for how to delete or block cookies manually.
7. Updates to This Cookie Policy
This policy may be updated periodically to reflect changes in cookies used, regulatory requirements, or business needs. Please check this page regularly for updates.
